Israeli legal officials said Palestine's decision to join the ICC could be "a nuisance for Israel…" But won't "yield any practical legal results."

In response to Israel freezing Palestinian revenues, Erekat on Sunday said the PA is ready to dismantle itself. "(H)and the keys" back to Israel.

Saying "(t)his is our money, Palestinian money that the Israeli government collects in exchange for 3%."

"This is collective punishment…(W)e will not be able to run our hospitals, our schools. People will not be able to get salaries."

"They're suffocating 4.5 million people. This is piracy and this is a real war crime." PLO leaders will address Netanyahu:

“(T)elling him: Status quo no more. Either this Authority and partnership will take us from occupation to independence through peaceful means, or Israel - the occupying power - will resume its full responsibilities."

"Next week or next month there will not be a Palestinian Authority. Israel will find itself responsible from the river Jordan to the Mediterranean, and you will find our kids running after your kids in refugee camps, as you did in 1992. That’s what it means."

In October, Abbas threatened the same thing. Saying "(i)f all efforts fail, we will end relations with Israel and I will tell Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, 'Come and take over.' "

"However, I will not dismantle the Palestinian Authority, and I will submit a request to join all the organizations belonging to the UN."

Earlier, Abbas hinted at plans to dismantle the PA. Without follow-through.
